The name of the database with the logging mode
that you want to alter.

Usage

Unlike when you change the database
logging mode with the ondblog or ontape utilities, when
you use this function, the database remains accessible, and a level-0
backup is not always required. Ensure that no other session is active
before running this function or it will fail.

Use
the "a" argument to change the database logging
to be ANSI compliant. After you create or convert a database to ANSI
mode, you cannot change it back to any of the other logging modes.

Use
the "b" argument to change the database logging
to be buffered, so that transaction information is written to a buffer
before it is written to a logical log.

Use the "n" argument
to change the database logging to be non-logging, so that no database
transactions are logged. You must perform a level-0 backup prior to
using this argument.

Use the "u" argument
to change the database logging to be unbuffered, so that data is not
written to a buffer before it is written to a logical log.

Example

The following example changes the logging
mode of a database named employee to unbuffered logging:
